The 2012 AACDD Bargehouse Festival

Since its debut in September 2010 as partner of the London Design
Festival, the three year African & African-
Caribbean Design Diaspora programme organised by the
London-based British European Design Group has brought
together and exhibited more artists
and designers of African and African-
Caribbean origin from more countries and more creative disciplines than
any other previous single initiative
of this kind.

The title of this year’s AACDD Bargehouse Festival ‘Untold Gold’
places the outstandingly beautiful and original work
of more than 150 artists and designers from the UK, Europe, Africa and
the Caribbean within the unique backdrop and raw space of Bargehouse,
London.

All five floors of the listed Bargehouse building, opposite the
Oxo Tower on the Southbank – the capital’s new hub for exciting
multicultural and multinational art and performance activities - will be
devoted to showcasing exceptional works from creatives of African and
African-Caribbean descent.

Disciplines represented will include fine art, sculpture, design,
graphic design, photography, multimedia and music, architecture,
furniture, lighting, textiles, home furnishings, ceramics, fashion and
fashion accessories, jewellery and beauty, as well as live music and
other performances.

In addition, a simultaneous virtual
exhibition will showcase the work of artists and designers whose pieces
cannot easily be transported from their countries of origin.

The 2012 AACDD Bargehouse Festival ‘Untold Gold’ will also
include the special feature exhibition ‘A life apart?‘ showing the
similarities of tools and objects of daily use in traditional societies
in rural Africa and the Western World in the past.

The superbly crafted artefacts of daily
use by traditional African artisans pay
homage to their magnificent manual skills and indigenous creativity, which have yet
to be recognised as important cultural
heritage by the Western world.

The AACDD project will create its own legacy, by highlighting the
talents of new and emerging artists and designers, many of whom have
not had the opportunity to showcase their works before.
